Refresh Your Alcohol Markers Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hey there craft friends! I am so excited to be joining my friends over at Altenew for the Refresh Your Alcohol Markers Blog Hop! I have quickly become a huge fan of Altenews Makers. There is a sale going on....I need to go shopping and buy some more markers for my stash! Stay tuned and keep scrolling for the sale information!

To create this card, I stamped the flowers from Bamboo Rose Set along the right side of the background in a light gray ink. Next, I used my spritzer and added in some black Copic "spritz" in the background. Next, I grabbed the sentiment "proud of your strength" along the bottom in black ink.

Using the marker refills I created an ombre panel that I used to cut out this gorgeous Thinking of You sentiment. To create the panel, I rolled up a 2" piece of fun foam to create a sturdy sponge. I added each of the 4 red refills to the sponge by adding drops in ombre order. I grabbed a piece of Yupo paper and then smeared the sponge over the paper to create the ombre inked background. It was super easy to create and so quick! Which is my kind of technique! Next, I ran the die cut through and created this beautiful sentiment.

To create some dimension on my card, I grabbed some black fun foam and ran it through with the same die cut and then attached the ombre sentiment right on top. I added it to my card using Tombow Mono Liquid glue. I tucked right on top of the stamped sentiment so perfectly!

That is it for me today. Check out the sale below and then keep scrolling for TWO chances to win!

Love the way you created the ombre' effect with the fun gown and refill inks.mi have got to give this a try once I get some of the refill inks. They look like a lot of fun to play with. Gorgeous card too!

Fantastic hombre in the reds & it makes a very brilliant pop on the top of the grey & white. I really love how clean, crisp & effective this card front is, thank you for sharing your inspirational work.
